Poke..poke.

"Sorry to interrupt suchh romantic scene, you both..." Emiliano joked a little with his intervention between Lena and Chris taking a glance at both with a huge smile. "...but I must wish this young lady very much luck next year and wish you, Kaplan the best in your music career..." He told both, spreading his arms for a hug, yet feeling really deep inside the need to just let out a few tears.

Who are we kidding...

HE WAS NOT READY YET...

"Wait just a minute Miss. Crawley. Are you telling me the only reason you talked to me that day was becuase you didn't know anybody else? And I was just the random person you talked to cause nobody else would???" Chris asked raising an eyebrow though no matter her answer he wouldn't care. They were together now and that's what counted. "Ohhh great are you going to be calling me like at two in the morning or something. Cause I can tell you now the whole conversation will be me grumply saying hello then the rest will be me snoring." He said chuckling lightly.

Chris then heard a voice behind Helena and himself. He then noticed it was Emmmm!!!! Chris smiled back to Emiliano. "It's alright bud. I'm not to mad at you." He said only joking to him. "Thanks Saenz. And I wish you the best with your studies and you better e-mail me alright?" He asked bringing up their little joke from their last talk. But that's when he noticed Em wanting a hug??? Chris stood up and hugged him in a sort of manly hug if that were possible.

'I don't see why he wouldn't teach. Unless headmasters are too busy to teach.. I don't know.' Not that Destiny cared if he taught that class or not, he did make the class fun. Even if he did poison them, make them fall in love and thrown potion filled balloons on their heads. Much fun! But he still scared her. 'Creepy old man..'

'No, doesn't matter.' It was actually quite peaceful without him. Well besides the professors up they arguing. But it was kinda bothering as to where he went. She would just have to ask her parents if he was brought to St. Mungo's. They would know. So maybe it does pay to have Healers in the family. She figured there was enough talk about that boy, and made a mental note not to bring him up ever again.

And now she was wishing she hadn't brought him up at all. Why was Josh so mad? Because Evelyn wasn't talking to him. Probably. 'Jealous much?' Destiny wanted to ask him, but decided against it. He would probably grab her head and just rip it off. With his bare hands. No, Destiny liked her head attached to her body.

'Sorry, Josh.' Maybe Destiny got a little carried away. But she only thought it was a joke. Unless Josh just didn't know how to take a joke, but she highly doubted that. She never even seen him mad before, well besides right now. Unless he just hated that Jake character so much, that the mere mention of his name ticked him off. Destiny will be quiet now..

Lena laughed at the wrong conclusion he drew and shook her head. No, no, no, no, she implored with a grin. I talked to you because you were exceptionally handsome and I had a huge crush on you, she said with a laugh before smiling genuinely at Chris. Whaaaaat?? It was the truth!

Lena rolled her eyes but she smiled at Emiliano regardless. Well, thank you very much, Emiliano, she said, I appreciate it very much so. Helena glanced over at Chris as Em spread his arms for a hug....

She was thoroughly unsurprised that Chris obliged, but she merely sat smiling at the two of them; Lena had known Emiliano for at least two years now, but she didn't know him that well. She didn't see it as an invitation to her, though, despite thinking him one of her very good friends.

...blink.

"Wait...I'll be seeing you very often, Kaplan..." Emiliano said, dodging his hug and shaking his head. Time for some jokes, maybe. "The hug was meant for your lady...if I'm allowed..." He said, rolling his eyes a bit.

"And about the email, thingy..." Hehe, yes...that's how he called it. "Umm...take it as my way to warn you I'll be around..." Em said, nodding his head slightly.

Ohhhhhhhh. Welll when Helena put it like that it made him feel much better. He smiled at her words. "Well when you say it like that it doesn't sound so bad." He said chuckling.

Okay that was just mean! Chris looked at Em and rolled his eyes at him. He then sat back down on the bench. "Yes fine you can hug her I don't care." He said sighing like he was upset or something which he wasn't!

"Okay and come when ever you like." Chris said shrugging. "I do have to say the apparment will be pretty pack with four of us living there." He warned Emiliano.

Good, Lena muttered with a wink, 'Cause that's how it went down. She chuckled lightly then looked up a bit surprised as Emiliano said that the hug was meant for her. She glanced over at Chris with raised eyebrows as he 'gave his permission' (though she liked the fact that they both felt it necessary) and kissed him lightly on the cheek before standing up and hugging Em tightly. I'm definitely going to be missing you around this place next year, she said with a sigh, the green disappearing from around her pupils once more.

"Ugh...I barely hug my dad and you want a hug from me?" Emiliano joked noticing the expression in Chris's face. "And you better get a good manager, because soon...that packed appartment must be like a huge one..." Right, Em knew about one or two when they discovered he had some bit of musical talent hidden there since he was a kid.

Emiliano hugged Lena back. "And...just a warning, Crawley...my cousin Anna is coming next year. So, you won't get rid of us Saenz so easly..." He was actually happy Annie was coming to Hogwarts to have that incredible experience of being in Hogwarts was for Em.

"I'll miss you too. And I can guess you'll be visiting Chris soon, right?" He asked, curiously, though he knew the answer. It was obvious.

Lena chuckled at Em's words to Chris and then smiled as she let him go slowly, still standing there anyway. She raised her eyebrow at the warning but was still trying not to laugh at this. Oh, no. She'll be an eagle like you, I suspect? she asked, referring to his house. Then she sighed heavily. I just dunno if I can be nice to a Ravvie.... even for you! She then winked at him. Yes, indeed - next summer at the latest. Can I expect to see you as well? Helena asked with a smile, having already heard about Em's plans from Chris.

Chris just smiled to Lena's whisper. He then felt that kiss to his cheek but then ewwwww he had to watch Helena hug somebody else. Actually Chris didn't care it was just Em right? He was like madly in love with Karma but if it would have been Blake....That wouldn't have been pretty.

"Dude I don't want to hug you. That mean I would get Emiliano germs all over me." Chris said teasing Em right back. "Already taken care of my friend. I have a manager. I'm not with a big record company or anything yet...but it's a good starting place." He said shrugging.

"I still don't know which house she'll belong to, but oh well..." Emiliano shrugged and smiled wide at the couple. Aww...they both looked cute. Those moments were the ones when he missed Karma the most, but anywhoo...she was far as for time and news let him.

Em nodded, assuring he'd be around New York for a while, four years actually. "Mhmm...time for me to be Muggle..." It was not a joke. Having those four years without magic were going to be like BAD, but he was ready for that. At least he thought he was.

"Good..." Emiliano said, doing a firm nod towards Chris. "And if you need a back up singer, a keyboard player...by any chance, don't doubt calling...I'm sure can have a...spare night?" Dude, he was getting nothing. Studying was gonna have to take place.

Helena chuckled and sat back down, this time facing outward instead of the interior of the table. She thought she recognized the look in Em's eyes.... but she wasn't quite sure - it could have just been her imagination, but she didn't mind being wrong about this. Awww, being a muggle isn't so bad - I've lived almost entirely muggle for four years now. It's really not so bad. She chuckled slightly and took Chris's hand in her own.

Yeahhhh it was good and Chris liked to brag about it. Welll not really but it kind of felt cool to be like 'yeah I've got a manager' and all...."Yeah when ever you can just call I'm sure we could always use a piano player or something." He said honestly.

Chris laughed slightly when Lena said it wasn't so bad living like a muggle. "Coming from the girl who doesn't like Muggle Studies." He said teasing Helena as he felt his hand now in hers. Hope Em didn't mind this to much....

occ: Leaving for bed now. Night you two!

Lena wrinkled her nose as she looked over at Chris and stuck her tongue out at him. You're never letting me live that one down, are you? she asked with a laugh and slight shake of her head. While the subject didn't interest her much, it was one of her strongest and she absolutely loved the teacher. She'd actually used him in homework for another class before.

ooc: i'm heading out soon too - night!

"I know being a Muggle isn't bad...but..." Emiliano said, but then he heard the teasing Chris made. "You don't like Muggle Studies?! Wow, that's intense..." He almost felt like heartbroken. Though he liked it for the times he had to enjoy the music he liked the most and the things he enjoyed doing. "...get familiarized. I warn you, living with this guy will require you to be Muggl-ish...you don't want Paparazzi's knowing that you are both wizard and witch..." Em...that meant like sort of weird warning coming from the Ministry, but HaAHA...

So, yeah...they were holding hands. Sigh...another Karma I miss you moments...


ooc: good night, you both

" Kat, I am glad you are here" Jason told her. "What. planning to do something to me when I am eating?" Jason asked Kat laughing. Kat is a real good person and Jason liked her honesty above all. "Well, I guess we get to eat now" Jason said to Kat.

"Evelyn, the owl will be just fine" Jason told her.
"Did I ever tell you that my cousin Excelscior Black will be there too and he is a pureblood slytherin" Jason explained to Evelyn. Jason remember when he met Evelyn, she was cool but now she has a problem with him because of his house possibly or him being a half-muggle. Interesting change. Jason thought all thos things to himself.
"Chris, glad to see you made it to the Gryffindor table" Jason teased him. "Did \you mmet Kat?" Jason asked him

Evelyn snickered, the thought of Jake being in St. Mungos seeming funny to her for some reason. 'Woah, wow. My thoughts really changed...' and just as the laughing started, it stopped. Why would she think someone going to St. Mungos was funny? Or even remotely amusing? Frowning, she tapped the table with her finger, not hungry anymore. Normally she would have been, well, curious and sad to know why someone was going there but now...?

Looking towards Jason again, Evelyn put on a small smile when he mentioned another pureblood Slytherin was going. Perhaps that information may have an affect on her parents, or it may not. She didn't know. "No you didn't say." she mumbled, glancing back down at the table for a split second before looking back to him.

"I really will try and persuade them. I have nothing against you or anyone, it's just...they can sometimes be..." Unfair? Controlling? Stubborn? Nah, there was probably worse words she could use but didn't bother to think of them. Destiny said she would go. Did Josh say he was too? Maybe she should try and persuade her parents harder than. Going an entire summer without friends and studying all the time... didn't sound so fun. "I'll try. It really sounds like fun."

''You did not sound like that a moment ago'' Josh replied with the very same tone. ''The Hufflepuff table is that...'' he indicated where students with yellow and black robes were sitting ''...way. You can go and do further investigation on the so interesting and lovely-formerly pink haired-cute- Huffie puffie'' He knew he should have hexed him in the face the moment he approached Rose. He even dared to attack him with his stupid bag, Josh knew he did it intentionally. Yes, he should have hexed him and save the whole world from a big trouble. Even his former pink hair was a good excuse for that.

He fixed his eyes on Destiny, then, when she said she was sorry. Sorry for what? ''For what exactly?'' he asked cooly. 'As if she cared much' he thought and stood up. ''Anyway it does not matter'' As he tried to step to the other side of the seat he tripped a little but hopefully managing his balance ''Stupid school uniform'' walked to the toher side of the table where less students were present. The last thing he wanted to hear at the last hours of school was curious mutterings about that Jake freak.

Chris turned back to Lena and shook his. "Nope." He said shaking his head. "It should be your favorite. We meet after a Muggle Studies rememeber???" He asked quietly to Lena with a sort of a sly smile.

Chris then heard his name and turned-still holding Lena's hand-to find Jason. "Haha really nice Jason. No I haven't." He told him.

Barry nodded to Jason "That sounds interesting, I should visit Excellior sometime. We should have a family reunion it seems like everyone I used to know in my first term is leaving" he said remembering all of his old freinds. "Anyway any plans for after hogwarts?"

He spotted Chris and gave him a little wave and said "Hey Chris! How are you?"

Lena laughed lightly as Emiliano said that it was intense that she didn't like Muggle Studies, but then he.... erm.... did he just say imply her living with Chris....?? Ooooookay.... Yes, I don't suppose that would be the best thing, she agreed with a nod and small smile, still mulling over his words.

Lena smiled as Chris's friend Jason came over, even though she felt sort of guilty for Chris's absence from his own table the past few months at his words. Hey, Jason, she said with a swift smile.

Helena smiled as Chris confirmed that she wouldn't live it down. At the rest of his words, she looked over to see that sly smile that she so loved upon his face and found herself blushing in spite of herself. Ah, but don't you see? Maybe I dislike it so much because I'm always waiting for it to be over, she said in equal volume with a small smile.

"Really?" KAt questioned him. "Im kidding" She grinned at him. "Oh i was thinking of doing a little of this a little of that" She laughed. "ooohh food" She said excitedly

And Josh didn't even accept Destiny's apology, even though he was the one that should apologize. Destiny felt he was the one that got all carried away. Its not like they were going to go sit by Jake and hold a conversation with him, pssssh, that would just turn out bad. Very, very bad.

Destiny didn't even laugh when Josh tripped. It took a lot for her to hold them giggles in. 'See, I am sorry, I didn't even laugh at him..' Well as soon as he walked away Destiny could feel the tears well up in her eyes. And when he actually sat at the other end of the table her tears started to flow.

Not wanting to cry in front of all the Gryffindors, because Gryffindors are all brave and they don't cry, Destiny stood up and started to walk back to the Slytherin table. But making sure she walked past Josh, so he knew that she was crying. 'You didn't have to leave.' she told he through the tears. She gave him one more 'I'm sorry' look and walked back to the Slytherin table.

If this whole Healer thing doesn't work out, she should definitely become an akktrees, or whatever the muggles on the muggle box were called.

ooc: Too much to quote!

Marilyn listened to the two Slytherin girls talk in silence, never taking her eyes off the staff table. If something happened, she surely didn't want to miss it...All this drama and excitement was helping her to not think about that stuff by the lake and other things completely out of her control. Nothing says distraction like a crazy headmaster firing people, causing others to quit.

When she heard her boyfriend's voice, she immediately looked around for him. Seeing Carter sitting with Ella caused her eyes to roll. Of course, he had to be with her. Glancing between the girls and Carter, Marilyn sighed. "I'll catch up with you two a little later." She then proceeded to stand, making her way towards the two Gryffindors. "Hello you." Flashing a weaker version of her best smile, she kissed his cheek. Her attention turned to Ella, "Mind if I join you? I wouldn't want to interrupt..." Her sarcasm want totally obvious...but any Slytherin could've caught it. She couldn't explain to anyone why she was being this way...It wasn't her intention. Just ever since that mess by the lake, Marilyn wasn't in the best of moods...with anyone.

Rafe took a seat at the end of the table. He wasn't in much of a mood for celebration. He felt like so many things were left unsaid this year. Especially amongst the adults. Should everyone really be in good cheer at the end of the year after three students had been killed? It was as though everyone had simply erased that from memory. Rafe was also sad that his conversation was cut short with Marilyn and that he hadn't seen Arianna for like the second half year. He missed her terribly and wanted to tell her what was going on. He felt so disconnected because he knew he would be going home soon, away from his new friends and his mum would probably make him travel again this year. Rafe sighed as he just stared at his plate.
